Title:
SHIP PROPULSION METHOD AND SHIP PROPULSION DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/149589
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To provide a ship propulsion method that makes it possible to smoothly transition from motor propulsion to hybrid propulsion. [Solution] A ship propulsion device 1 that has: a propeller 9; a main engine 2 that is controlled by a governor 3; a motor 14 that has torque control performed thereon by an inverter 12; and a controller 4. The controller determines a propulsion state from an external signal and performs control using a motor propulsion control unit 50 or a hybrid propulsion control unit 40. During motor propulsion control, a torque command value is given to the inverter by means of feedback control such that the rotational speed of the motor coincides with a target rotational speed. During hybrid control, the inverter is controlled using an assist torque command value obtained by PID calculation of the deviation between a present value and a target vale for main engine output. Distribution of main engine output and motor assist amount are optimized, and operation of the governor-controlled main engine is streamlined.
